Team versus Group
Groups Teams
Members work independently and they
often are not working towards the same
goal.
Members work interdependently
towards the same agreed goal.
Members focus mostly on themselves
because they are not involved in the
planning of their group’s objectives and
goals.
Members feel a sense of ownership
towards their role in the group because
they committed themselves to goals
they helped create.
Members may not fully understand
what is taking place in their group and
what are their roles.
Members collaborate together and
know their roles and know how to
attain the team's objectives..
Members are given their tasks or told
what their duty/job is, and suggestions
are rarely welcomed.
All members are encouraged to
express their opinions, varying views,
and questions.
By: Sayed Eltaweel
Groups Teams
Members do not trust each other's
motives because the do not fully
understand members roles.
Members trust and respect each other
and they listen to every person’s point
of view.
Members are held back because of a
closed relationship with each member.
Members are encouraged to offer their
skills, experience, and knowledge,
Members are bothered by differing
opinions or disagreements because they
consider it a threat. There is not group
support to help resolve problems.
Members see conflict as a part of
human nature and they react to it by
treating it as an opportunity to hear
about new ideas and opinions.
Members may or may not participate in
group decision-making, and conformity
is valued more than positive results.
Members participate equally in
decision-making, but each member
understands that the leader might need
to make the final decision if the team
can not come to a consensus
